Just remember Mike you canβt buy distance. With the right set up and technique and conditions 150mt is possible with bait. So get out and practice practice practice, with bait of course π

Hi Mike Itβs a mine field there are so many rods to choose from. There is a large range of continental rods and dare I call them normal rods. As you know I have been involved with casting and competition fishing for many years and have tried all sorts of rods. I use conti rods and like fishing with them the vercelli handles rays on Southbourne beach no problem. It all comes down to personal preference. Do you want reel up or reel down, over head thump, pendulum, back cast off the ground? it goes on and on and on.. I would suggest you go and see Tom, but it is now tier 4 so you canβt go in the shop to see what he has but he knows a lot about the conti style rods and is always happy to give advice. I suggest you give him a ring he has a lot of experience as an England international fishing venues from Southbourne to South Africa. If it wasnβt for this COVID stuff it would be much easier to choose the right rod for you. There is no perfect fit so a little compromise should set you up with an all rounder to suit your needs. Good luck in your search for the rod you want.

Try John Dunster one of our members, he can weld almost anything. If itβs knackered what have you got to loose. Give him a call.

Another tip you might find helpful. When using the rod butt to hold the reel thread the line through the rod ring on the butt, then hold the butt so that the line is vertical over the spool ,this will stop the spool jumping around. Having been a tournament caster for many years, respooling reels is part of the sport π sometimes 20 times in a tournament. Multiplier or fixed spool the same principle applies when spooling.

When we were in Poole haven a few years ago they had a leak. They checked every boat in the marina at no cost to owners. They were very good and sorted the problem. I think you should lobby the management at Cobbs to get things sorted before someone gets an expensive bill for damage caused by the leak.

Bobi and me will be out somewhere tomorrow will be listening on ch6.
